The Wilderness collection contains elegant pieces as well as sporty clothing. The combination of colors between the boiled wool in dark blue and the cord in light brown are casual.

The Retro Sport collection is the most varied collection. Fairy tales and stories are told, written down in the boiled wool of Giesswein.

The Nordic-Style is the opposite to this fanciful style and thus the perfect outfit for the cool. The collection is made of highlights: classical colors like dark blue and red or trendy Fair Isle design guarantee the perfect mix.

Je suis en CP Childern's Collection at Pitti Bimbo


Having completed a degree in chemistry, the designer, Céline Prost, reoriented her career towards fashion in order to fulfill a childhood dream. She studied fashion at Esmod Paris and at l’Ecole de la chamber syndicale de la couture parisienne.

In September 2009, Je suis en CP came to light: playful and delicate fashions for children ages 0-6.

Creativite and innovation Je suis en CP offers simple yet well-cut shapes, fun graphic details drawn from the imaginary. Genuine research in a combination of materials and a mix of prints brings out the best in each fabric. The innovative materials used, such as Japanese quilted cotton, are always of natural origin.

Je suis en CP clothes are designed by a mother who knows about the practical side of children’s wear. Each piece is made to be easy to put on a baby or toddler, and to make dressing easy : snaps between the legs, buttons in the back, elastic waistbands that can be altered…

Kids Company Fall/Winter 2011-12 Collection at Pitti Bimbo


Stars of the Kids Company Autumn-Winter 2011-12 collection - the “one-time school” children.
Bon-ton style, clean lines with a personal mix and an eye for details: boiled wool for outwear, jackets such as the "grandfather" jacket with leather patches and buttons, knitwear in Merino wool and cashmere playing with contrasting motifs and edges.

For the boy, dressed in plain shirts in dandy fabrics, even coming back to shorts and wool fantasy trousers: from small checks to tartan. The girls often dress with spirited "Liberty" flowers, printed on flannels and muslins, and sometimes they become princesses with crinky dresses and opaline buttons.

A palette of colors ranging from reassuring traditional tones to the most sought and trendy shades: acid green, burgundy and mauve. Original details embellish the garments of little girls with small embroideries and hand knitting. At this point, vintage accessories come together and enrich the forms simply. For very small, soft natural fabrics in soft colors such as melange sky blue, cream, pale pink and sandy, combined with precious cashmere mesh.

French designer Suzanne Ermann, already world famous for her collections of wedding and evening

“Children”, by Suzanne Ermann, is meant for girls from 2 to 14 who enjoy dressing and having fun. Her 2011-2012 Autumn-Winter collection is chic and playful with Day and Evening creations.

Suzanne Ermann revisits sportswear garments with her Couture touch. Quality fabrics are mixed sophistically.

Dresses, skirts, tops and blousons are made in quilted material and polar wool. Other dresses, suits, and sweats are in jersey adorned with fringes. Fake sheep-fur wool warms up coats and jackets.

Suzanne Ermann has imagined a host of dresses to celebrate: she structures shapes in duchesse satin, underlined with ruches stitched with multicoloured marbles, or with Lamé details (candys, piping...).

Fluid shapes are draped in velvet jerseys or adorned with twirls in flocked tulle and snowflakes that come to life at the slightest move.
